Trump "They're trying to burn the tape" of his appearance (it never happened) on Oprah's show

Trump: “Oprah’s been down to Mar-a-Lago,” then claims he was on her last week of shows (he wasn’t), then insinuates they’re ”trying to burn the tape.” (Which explains why the tape of the show he wasn’t on doesn’t exist!)

Why make an outlandish lie about something so meaningless and easily disproved?

He does it all the damn time and it so ridiculous it's infuriating. I get that it's a two pronged attack in the sense he knows that it'll be a distraction while ensuring he's the only source for truth for his "base"

Not a twitter user. It's out there, I sure she will respond quickly. Not everything gets used on the public airing of shows.

Trump appeared on her show many times. The 1988 appearance was one where he was talking about running for President.

He was interviewed by many people over the years - most notably Larry King (where he also talked about "running for President" ). He thrived on media attention and was heavily involved in that world.

The Beatles got all the recognition while he did a tremendous amount of work - the most tremendous amount of work. Life is not fair, especially to tRump.

Why does he lie so much? Is there something wrong with him? Is he delusional? He says so many things that are blatantly and provably false.
